Persephone - Wishbone Ash

There’s a light that shines on Persephone

Always a fire in her eyes

And the last time that I went to her

I could tell things weren’t right

I just don’t care to see your years go wasting

There’s no longer magic in your eyes

In your time, you could outshine everybody else around

But your off-stage ways might be a bore —

You take a bow, you take a fall

I just don’t care to see your years go wasting

There’s no longer magic in your eyes

I came to be here in the footlights

To live with you through every song

And your face displays a peaceful field

I can’t believe the curtain has to fall

Now I know your years were never wasted

Tonight I saw the magic in your eyes
